I talked to a rain gutter contractor here today about making a 2 foot gutter
where a gable roof drains onto the windows on the front of my house. He
said he couldn't do a gutter that would be strong enough to go in there and
handle the amount of water flow off of that gable. Reccomended I call a
sheet metal company and get an extimate on a scudder box instead.

What the heck is that?

I need to redirect this as the water is eating the morter out of the bricks.

Here's a dumb question: Why didn't you ask him as soon as he
used the word and you didn't know what it meant?

Why don't you call him back and ask?

Becuse I was a little loopy from Pain medications. I just had my
gallbladder removed a few days ago.
Scupper Box I know. Scudder box confused me.

Thanks for the information.

I'm sure he meant a scupper box. It may be better known as a
conductor head. Here is an example:
